Experiencing David Brighton’s Tribute to David Bowie made for a truly remarkable evening…” says Harry Maslin, the Producer of David Bowie’s YOUNG AMERICANS andSTATION TO STATION Albums.
Brighton’s credits include performing side by side with David Bowie himself in the TV commercials for Vittel Mineral Water and for Reality – Bowie’s CD.

This unforgettable stage production is complete with flamboyant costume changes, elaborate staging, perfectly emulated vocal stylings and one of the best all-star backing bands in the business. All of the many faces David Bowie are present… from stadium-sized pop phenomenon, to space-age rock and roll alien Ziggy Stardust… and so is the excitement and electricity…
“David Brighton’s charisma keeps the audience mesmerized and his vocals are flawless… His likeness to Bowie is eerie… The crowd actually gasped in amazement as he took the stage… you wondered if it wasn’t really Bowie himself… Everyone was leaving their seats and kicking up their platform heels to the sounds of chart-topping hits like Fame, China Girl, Let’s Dance and Modern Love… What (Brighton and band) give is nothing short of the opportunity to go back in time…” – The LA Review
